Fourth-rank Longevity Pills were rare and precious, immensely significant. Chen Ping'an sorted them by category and stored them properly.
Besides the Longevity Pills, the two Shangqing Pills were also quite extraordinary. They could serve as a faction's foundation, placed in its treasury for others to exchange for. They could also be used in Celestial transactions as core resources to obtain desired materials.
Among Martial Dao Celestials, many had the need to nurture and support their juniors. Such spiritual pills, capable of aiding one through the barriers of breaking through and increasing one's odds of ascending to Celestial status, had always been in the highest demand.
Especially for those factions with declining fortunes and anxieties over their next generation of successors, such items were practically foundational treasures that determined whether a sect rose or fell.
Even Great Cultivators had the need to seek spiritual items for their bloodline descendants and younger clan members, helping them break through their realms.
However, Great Cultivators usually had dealings with high-rank alchemists, so they would not necessarily go out of their way for such items. Still, should the opportunity be right, they would not be stingy about making a move and using them in trade.
There were also Soul Secret Pills, which could enhance explosive power. Their rank was roughly equal to the one obtained through the trade with the Gu Family. With this pill added to his collection, Chen Ping'an had far more flexibility in the methods he could use for explosive bursts of power.
Even at his current realm, the boost brought by a Soul Secret Pill could not be underestimated.
For example, if an experienced Second Realm Celestial took a Soul Secret Pill, they might not be able to launch a Cross-Border Counter-Attack, but their combat strength would certainly surpass most opponents
